Maybe not so elegant.

Well, this is embarrassing. After going on about how a nifty little change in the second and third books would fix all problems, I went ahead and made the change.

And it was awful.

It just didn't work.

The only thing I can think is that both books had a certain arc, and that I can't take out a long section from one and put it in the other without losing a certain cohesiveness. It isn't a logical difference, it's something else. Subtle clues that show whether the chapters are supposed to be in the first half of one book but not the ending of another.

About Me

I'm Duncan McGeary, owner and/or operator for the last 33 years of Pegasus Books in Downtown Bend, Oregon. These days I'm writing books as well as selling them.
I'm the comic book guy. But even more so, I'm a book book guy. Books of all kinds. Big books and little books, children's and adult, fiction and non-fiction, hardback and paperback and trade paperback and graphic novels. Books with more words than pictures and books with more pictures than words. They are all part of the book world to me, and I love being surrounded by them every day.
I also have a second blog: Pegasus Books, where I list the product coming in over the next week.
